When Leigh leaves the villa, his anger still hasn't gone away.
It is only two o'clock in the afternoon, so he drives to the company. Seeing the hostility and gloomy expression on his face, the employees didn't dare to stay close to him and make a sound.
Leigh vents the remaining anger in the meeting room and scolds the manager after finding his mistake. In the meeting room, he doesn't stop scolding.
The executives listen silently, their hearts filled with anguish.
Damn it, wasn't Mr. Leigh happy on his birthday, giving everyone candies and saying that his wife was pregnant? Why does he change after the birthday?
Is it because his wife lost the baby and he treats them as a vent to his anger during this period of time?
Everyone guesses this, but they don't dare to ask.
An hour and a half later, the hell-like meeting finally ends. Everyone rushes out of the meeting room and prays in their hearts that no more meetings will be held this week.
Leigh sits alone in the conference room for a long time, deep in thought.
It isn't until someone comes to clean up and calls him, "Mr. Leigh, it's time to knock off." Then he regains his senses and leaves the meeting room.
At a quarter past six, it is getting dark.
Evelyn calls and asks him if he will come back for dinner. He wants to go back, but Evelyn mentions Jessie and says, "Jessie has been abroad for so long. Do you want to fly over to see her? She's pregnant. It's very hard for her. Don't let her handle her work abroad. What if she's tired?"
Immediately, anger burns in Leigh's heart again. He says impatiently, "She wants to go there. What can I do? Mom, don't worry about her all the time. If you have nothing else, go to the beauty salon and have a beauty care!"
"What are you talking about?" Evelyn pauses and asks him, "Did you quarrel with Jessie?"
"No!"
Evelyn says angrily, "Sounds like you have quarreled with Jessie. Leigh, you should be considerate. She is pregnant, why are you angry with her..."
"Mom, I still have something to do. I'm hanging up!" He is reluctant to listen and hangs up the phone.
He doesn't want to go home.
Coincidentally, a friend asks him if he is free to come to the DM club for a drink. Leigh replies him and immediately drives to the DM club.
After entering the clubhouse, he pushes open the private room door and finds that there are quite a few people inside.
"Leigh, good evening!" When his friend sees him, he immediately stands up to welcome him. He hugs his shoulders and smiles, "I heard that you took over the Lewis Group. I'm afraid you won't have time to hang out with us!"
Leigh sits down on the sofa and kicks him lightly. "You've already invited me. Even if I don't have time, I still have to come here. Otherwise, I might be cursed by you guys."
The group of people in the private room burst into laughter.
Those who can join Leigh's circle are all bona-fide rich second generations. Everyone sits down to drink and chats in twos and threes, exchanging resources and connections.
Now that Leigh has taken over the Lewis Group and is on good terms with Mr. Smith, the others are much inferior to him. Therefore, Leigh becomes the center of them. As long as he wants the resources, no one dares to refuse him. They hope to have a good relationship with Leigh so that they will be able to share a piece of cake in other projects.
After drinking and chatting with his friends in an intoxicated atmosphere and easily obtaining a few resources, Leigh does not feel so uncomfortable anymore. After drinking for a while, he is tired and moves to a quiet place to rest.
Lazily, he rests his legs on a soft chair, takes out a phone with broken a screen from his pocket, and slides it open.
This phone belongs to Jessie.
